Abstract

A device for enabling a person to breathe more easily while alleviating snoring problems. The device (10) is a generally W-shaped frame (20) providing a pair of suitably sized spacing tips (12) for insertion into the user's nostrils. These tips serve to open and shape the nasal passages so that breathing is facilitated. <IMAGE>
